Houston, TX (April 1, 2009) — For the past few years, all of Keith Reynolds’s plays have been private affairs in scary private places. BUT NOW the ALL NEW Superhappyfunland has asked Keith to perform his latest play on Friday, April 17, 2009, at 8:30pm at the all new Superhappyfunland at 3801 Polk Street.

Nuts and Volts, the Musical, is a play about an insane asylum and crazy people in general. Audiences can expect a treat of over 10 original musical song and dance numbers, and a cast of 17 ubertalented H-town legends, including Daniel Adame (award winning performance artist), Richard Lyders (Bacon of Tamalalia Fame), Ashley Horne (Suchu company member), Shanon Adams (badass modern dancer), Leah Lankford (cuts people’s heads open for a living for real), Sara Jo Dunstan (bartender at the Alabama Ice House), Wayne Wilden (owner of the Atomic Café), Thuy-Linh Cornett (the most famous nude model in Houston), Laura Schlect (Houston producer of the 48 hour film festival), Dana Pike (manager of Waldo’s Coffee House), Jeremy Carlson (the funniest actor EVER and manager of Danton’s Seafood), Mike Switzer (The Defenestration Unit, IBP, clerk at Candilicious), Elisabeth Jackson (member of the Krinkles), and Mossie Burcham (waitress at Jenni’s Noodles). The music will be performed by Keith Reynolds (Slump), Leif Erikson (Organ Failure), and Bill Savoie (Texas Guinness Lovers). Prop design is by Rodney Davis (devotes an entire room of his home to Star Wars Memorabilia.)

The evil McTorturesteinberg family runs the asylum with an iron fist. The lunatics are a lovable bunch who are used and abused and can’t take it anymore. There’s a whole lotta fighting and torture and sexiness. Eddie McTorturesteinberg (Jeremy Carlson) has six arms and a hunchback. Gerbilboy (Wayne Wilden) is forced to live in a 3 foot high cage. John/Joan Garrison (Mike Switzer) is a man who is being told he is a woman. Or is he/she a woman? Chamelia (Sara Jo Dunstan) is possessed by over 40 characters. The maniacal dancing includes a new dance step – the chickenhead lift, which has to be seen to be believed.

Keith Reynolds has been diagnosed as mentally ill, so that makes it PC, right?
